About Lúnasa Days
My first novella, Lúnasa Days, is a work of magical realism set in the Great Recession:
“This is a story of Fate…”
The sun’s going. It’s July, and the corn doesn’t know it. It grows tall and green. The human heart knows. It stirs and it stirs. There’s a dwindling late in summer, a sadness. And a loner on the roads. He left a life that wasn’t bad. Everyone said he was good at his job, even his boss.
But when he was young he knew something. He had a fate, a reason to exist. He never quite found it, and every autumn it slipped further away.
He stopped one day for food. A gas station, like any other, but the man there was friendly. Bored. He liked the look of the young guy with his bike, and he spoke to him.
“Where you headed?”
It was a hard question.
“Well, what do you do?”
Vagabond. Can you say vagabond? Is that a career?
He looked aside.
“I cast spells,” he said.
The man had some work for him.

About Introvert Dreams
You may also like my story-driven coloring book, Introvert Dreams:
Introvert Dreams is a collaborative project between introvert author Jenn Granneman, artist Maxeem Konrardy and myself. We wanted to make something that stands out from other adult coloring books by weaving a rich, meaningful storyline through the images. All three of us are introverts, and we chose a story that speaks to the need for solitude—vast, empty landscapes and forgotten, wild places.
The result is a book that is part coloring adventure, part storybook, and part meditation experience.
90 colorable pages. See it for yourself here.
